I was told that Betsy was built in a couple of weeks, but has taken
a lot longer to restore.
Under John Young's guidance using traditional boat building methods
she is now ready to go back in the river.

The river end of the veranda is now clear and tidy for social
events.

On the southern side of the shed a lot of the timber has been cut
and sorted leaving a tidier area.

Work is continuing on 'Flatty' and 'Gretchen' which both will see
completion in early 2018.

Once Betsy is back in the river the next project to start will be
the Flying 15 which is a very rare version, being carvel built.

As requested a ladder has been constructed for the north end of the
shed that houses the Grebes and will installed soon.
